#79: In Christ - Living Sacrifice

In Christ
Living Sacrifice

Genre: Death Metal

Note: This was previously a transcription project. The real lyrics are found at top, but I figured I'd leave the attempted transcription up to show where we were wrong. Since so many people contributed, I thought it would be respectful. The lyrics were posted on BandsOnFire.
Thanks to Hunter, Kris, Fighting on my knees, and all the anonymous contributors



Birthright by the hand of God. I am he, chosen and called.
I have answered and understand. The gift of God has been given by his Son.

I am in Christ, the Son of God. I am in Christ, no longer condemned.
I am in Christ, the Son of God. I am in Christ, resurrected.

Who can be against me, who can compromise?
The power of He is resting, I will glorify.

Laid bare, before your eyes. It can only come this way.
The price is paid, by His blood. All I ask is who am I?

I am in Christ, the Son of God. I am in Christ, no longer condemned.
I am in Christ, the Son of God. I am in Christ, resurrected. (resurrected, resurrected)

The right to live, the right to breathe. The right to be and to believe.
God has come, the time has come to take hold of the promise, of the promise, of the promise.
The time has come to take hold of the Blood, of the Blood, of the Blood, of the Blood...





Old Transcription:
Blood brought (/Put forth?) as an act of God (/by the hand of God?)
I am healed and chosen to go
I have answered and joined the stand
The gift of God has been given by His Son

I am in Christ, the son of God
I am in Christ, no longer condemned
I am in Christ, the son of God
I am in Christ
Resurrected

Who can be against me?
Who can compromise
The power of He is resting
It will glorify

Unveiled before your eyes
I can only talk this way
The price is paid
By His blood
All I ask, is who am I?

I am in Christ, the son of God
I am in Christ, no longer condemned
I am in Christ, the son of God
I am in Christ
Resurrected

The lord to heal
The lord to breathe
The lord to be and to pity
God has come (/Cornerstone?)
The time has come
So take hold of the promise
[Of/You're?] the promise

The time has come
So take hold
Of the Blood

  1. I wanted to give a whack at cracking these lyrics as well so here is my contribution

    boodwa (I realize this word is fake but that's what is sounds like)
    by the hand of God
    I am he the chosen to go
    How I've acted yet don't understand
    The gift of God
    has been given by his son

    I am in Christ the son of God
    I am in Christ no longer condemned
    I am in Christ the son of God
    I am in Christ
    resurrected

    who could be in the spirit
    who could compromise
    the power of He is resting
    who will glorify

    I fail before your eyes
    I can only talk this way
    the price is paid by his blood
    All I ask is who am I

    The Lord to Heal
    the Lord to Breathe
    The world to be I don't pity
    cornerstone
    the time has come
    so take hold of the promise
    of the promise
    of the promise

    The time has come
    So take hold
    of the Blood

    Hope this helps with the lyrics

  2. Nice work, I'll check out how it sounds again. Thanks a lot for the help.

  3. I think instead of "who can be in the spirit" it's "who can be against me?".
    Also instead of "brought forth", possibly "blood bought it's the hand of God" or maybe even "blood bought as an act of God."
    Also instead of "I fail before your eyes", possibly "a large veil before your eyes, it can only go this way."
    And I'm pretty sure it's "promise" not "brothers"

  4. I agree on all of those. Thanks for the help!

  5. The world to be I don't pity

    That doesn't sound right. The begining sounds just like the others. It sound like "The lord to......" but I can't make out the rest. It seems like he's saying "The Lord to be...." or "The Lord to breathe, to breathe in me" or something

  6. It's "the lord to be and to pity"

  7. I agree, it does sound like that now that you point it out.

    That is what it sounds like to someone who screams, and has a good ear for picking up on lyrics that are screaming. Hope this helps

  10. This is just my take on the lyrics:

    Put forth by the hand of God
    I am he, the chosen to go
    I have answered, and joined the stand
    The gift of God has been given by His Son

    I am in Christ
    The son of God
    I am in Christ
    No longer condemned
    I am in Christ
    The son of God
    I am in Christ
    Resurrected

    Who can be against me?
    Who can compromise?
    The power of He is resting
    It will glorify

    Unveiled before your eyes
    It can only come this way
    The price is paid by His blood
    All I ask is who am I?

    I am in Christ
    The son of God
    I am in Christ
    No longer condemned
    I am in Christ
    The son of God
    I am in Christ
    Resurrected
    (Resurrected)
    (Resurrected)

    The lord to heal
    The lord to breathe
    The lord to be and to pity
    God has come
    The time has come
    So take hold of the promise
    To take hold of the promise

    You're the promise
    You're the promise
    The time has come
    So take hold

    Of the blood
    Of the blood
    Of the blood


    Basically pretty similar to what hunter said.

    Praise God these guys reach in and provide God's healing touch to the most tortured of souls.

    The way I hear these lyrics...

    Blood bought as an act of God
    I am he I'm chosen to go
    I have answered and joined the stand
    the gift of God has been given by His Son

    I am in Christ, a son of God
    I am in Christ, no longer condemned
    I am in Christ, a son of God
    I am in Christ
    Resurrected

    Who can be against me?
    Who can compromise
    The power of He is resting
    It will glorify

    Unveiled before your eyes
    I can only talk this way
    The price is paid
    By His blood
    All I ask, is who am I?

    I am in Christ, the son of God
    I am in Christ, no longer condemned
    I am in Christ, the son of God
    I am in Christ
    Resurrected

    Who can be against me?
    Who can compromise
    The power of He is resting
    It will glorify

    A large veil before your eyes
    I can only talk this way
    The price is paid
    By His blood
    All I ask, is who am I?

    I am in Christ, the son of God
    I am in Christ, no longer condemned
    I am in Christ, the son of God
    I am in Christ
    Resurrected

    Behold...

    The Lord to heal
    The Lord to breathe
    The Lord to be and to pity
    Cornerstone
    The time has come
    To take hold of the promise
    You're the promise (x2)

    The time has come
    So take hold
    Of the blood
    (Repeat to fade)

    Blessings in the name of Christ who conquered the grave and sent His spirit so that we could all become children of the most high God!
